Great Salvadoran food, good service, the ambience is that of a typical Latin restaurant/bar but it is clean and the service is solid.

Pupusa( cheese & revuelta) and curtido (cabbage salad) each pupusa $2.50 which isn't bad the size is a little smaller than other places I've tried but overall the taste was good. The curtido is spicy. Definitely recommend.

By far, the best Pupusa I have had ever. Just moved back to North Jersey from down the shore after 15 or so years. I have missed the food, not the traffic. But, back on subject...these were amazing. The staff was nice and cordial. Easy pick up (in and out)! If you're in the area try this, you will not be disappointed! Promise. Oh, these are Pupusas Revuelta (cheese and chicharron) stuffed in all this goodness of a corn tortilla! I ask for extra coleslaw (forget what they call it) and extra sauce! It's heavenly!

Had a late night pupusa craving so we came here as our usual place was closed. Server was very friendly and suggested we wait at the bar until our order was ready to go. The bar area is cozy, the beers were ice cold and we got free chips with salsa. The homemade salsa wasn't very good but the chips were great! The dimmed lights and music created the perfect ambiance for an impromptu date. It's a casual hole in the wall but I can see it being a cute dinner date spot. Our pupusas took forever to be ready but we were having a great time waiting. We got revueltas and plain cheese with spicy curtido. My bf loved the revueltas but I've had better elsewhere, the cheese were perfect though, so gooey. The experience was a five but the food is about a three, hit or miss for me. We'll keep this place in mind for late night pupusa needs.

Definitely go here! Was initially a little hesitant (I generally don't give much weight to less than 10 reviews) but wife wanted pupusas for brunch and we were in the area so decided to give them a try. It started off promising with warm, crispy tortilla chips and housemade salsa. Pupusas are custom made so you can specify which ingredients. (We are vegetarian so got beans+cheese and loroco +cheese. Both are very good. House cabbage was crisp, flavorful and a great topper on the pupusas. I ordered the eggs breakfast which was solid. Fried plantains were the best I've had, with a thin, crispy outside and soft, yummy inside. added bonus, the two ladies running the place were super friendly and patient with us. We'll definitely be back!

This spot is a little hidden gem .. Been around for as long as i can remember and it currently is my go to spot for PUPUSAS. If you don't know what they are, you need to ASAP. I recommend grabbing some mix and some just with cheese for your first go around to see which ones you like best but regardless of which you choose.... Make sure you load them up with a ton of curtido. ( Cabbage spicy sauce) and bring them down with an ice cold beer ... (While listening to their awesome 80s and 90's spanish music selection blasting from the jukebox)

Great pupusas. They are a bit slow, call in and order ahead of time. Try the cheese or the chicharon.

Nice little mom and pop restaurant. Simple and traditional décor, decent bar and satisfying menu. They are open pretty late (around 2 on the weekends) so it's a great spot to go after drinks. I always get the pupusas. I have never had a pupusa until I came here. Now I crave it every once in a while. It's a corn tortilla stuffed with cheese, pork, beans or a combo. And they serve it with a cabbage slaw. It takes a few minutes because they make it per order. It comes out hot and the cheese is gooey and delicious. For me it's a guilty pleasure food. I like to pile on the cabbage and eat it with my hands and a lot of hot sauce. Add an iced cold beer on the side at it's a perfect ending to a night out partying.
